One question. Would these be preferably textbooks or any topic within that subject?

Would you want to read the same books on the subject everyday, or new ones everyday you go to the library.

Benny - that occured to me also. I'm thinking, pick new books on the subject each visit until you run out of books, then go back are re-PR the ones that stuck out from the rest. Let your intuition guide you.

I've had so many (new) things on my mind these past several weeks that I forgot to do this, and I had been meaning to for a long time - I'll start this week at the library for sure. Now that I'm really "into" the PR methods I want to see what this added measure does to my studies.

Well Pete, things are a bit different with me. I had a tough course last term but due to ilness I didn't write the final of that course and hence would be writing it this term. Since I only have to write the final, I dont goto class. How would I use photoreading for that course? BTW, its a probability course. If that helps.

Thanks

Pick your toughest class.

Go to the library and PhotoRead six books on the topic--don't worry about activation. Do this for a couple of days in a row, longer if you can. Don't worry about form; just do it.

Notice what happens in your classes, in your readings, and in your studies. Many, many people have told me that suddenly the class became easier. The information was not as difficult to understand. The lectures became activation sessions for the books.

Pay attention to your dreams, your thoughts, and your conversations. See how the stuff from that subject seeps into your life!

Have fun...

If you have to write on something I guess you have considerable reading to do to know the subject that you have to write about. There are probably plenty of books on the subject.

I'd go for 10 books. Photoread the lot, by Photoreading 6 of those books a day at mixed for a week. Then from a quick postview select 4 or 5 books for syntopic reading. Write the paper. There really is no limit to how you approach it. Photreading more books than you need just seems to make it easier.
